Finally bought a new car...
 
... and as far as what I bought, I don't think anyone saw it coming, I know I sure didn't.

Reasons I didn't originally consider it:
1. I thought it was going to be a harsh ride, like a Jeep TJ... I was wrong. The wheelbase is longer than a Grand Cherokee, and the ride is quite nice.
2. I didn't think it would be practical for my job, as I do drive around quite a bit, and I need to carry a ton of stuff with me... I was wrong, the interior room and comfort is awesome, and there is ample room in the back for all my equipment.

So there you have it, I finally got a new car. I pick it up on October 20th (they're doing a 'new vehicle showcase' and my Wrangler is one of the vehicles they're showing). Best part of all... my neighbours won't be able to hear me when I come home late. :thumbsup

do the doors actually lock on them? On the regular ones you can unlock them pretty easy (I did one in a parking lot for a guy who locked his keys in it)

TorqueDog 10-17-2006 10:58 AM

The doors actually lock, yes. It even has keyless entry and power windows.
